标题[求译] 请好心人帮译 98国安局特考英文

中译
属句子/段落:
A panda walks into a cafe. He orders a sandwich, eats it,
then draws a gun and fires two shots in the air. “Why?” asks the confused
waiter, as the panda makes towards the exit. The panda produces a badly
punctuated wildlife manual and tosses it over his shoulder. “I am a panda,”
he says, at the door. “Look it up.” The waiter turns to the relevant entry
and, sure enough, finds an explanation. “Panda. Large black-and-white
bear-like mammal. Native to China. Eats, shoots and leaves.” So, punctuation
really does matter, even if it is only occasionally a matter of life and death.
In 2003 Lynne Truss published Eats, Shoots and Leaves: The Zero Tolerance
Approach to Punctuation. The book became a runaway success in the U.K.,
hitting number one on the best-seller lists and prompting extraordinary
headlines such as “Grammar Book Tops Bestseller List” (BBC News).
This is a book for people who love punctuation and get upset when it is
mishandled. The above passage is printed on its back cover.
我的试译:
不是我不打 是我真的不会翻
单字大部分看得懂, 但是组成文章完全看不懂意思
第一大段, 使用熊猫来说明 是有什麽含意吗? (有引用寓言故事?)
提问:
Eats, shoots and leaves 吃饭 射击 离开 ???
完全牛头不对马嘴 请好心的大大指导一下
1. 这篇文章大概在讲什麽?
2. Eats, shoots and leaves 怎麽翻才对?
感谢!!
